I recently received an email from a reader who wanted to know if Austrian wrestler Chris Colen is still wrestling. The good news is, yes, "The Austrian Wolverine," as he calls himself, is still actively wrestling. In fact, 41-year-old Colen has already had 9 matches so far this year; in his most recent one held last March 19th, Colen lost his Rings of Europe heavyweight title to Michael Kovac. The pictures below aren't very recent, but you can't tell these are a few years old because Colen these days (he's a personal trainer by day) still looks as fit and strong as ever.

Old School Beefcake: Tom Zenk's Tag Teams
Here's a brief look-back at a couple of tag teams American wrestler Tom "Z-Man" Zenk was part of. Some of you may remember Zenk and Canadian wrestler Rick Martell's Can-Am Connection. The duo was poised to become of the WWE's (WWF back then) most successful tag teams of the 1980s, but after only a year, the partnership dissolved. So what happened? Read about it here. In the 1990s, Zenk, now signed to Word Championship Wrestling (WCW), WWE's biggest rival then, partnered with Johnny Gunn (aka Tom Brandi, however, their tag team came nowhere near as big as The Can-Am Connection. Read the story about Zenk and Gunn here.
